Expert Solution

Transcription is the process of conversion of DNA to RNA. In this process, the template DNA is read by an enzyme and the complementary ribonucleotides are recruited and sieved together via phosphodiester bonds resulting in the formation of RNA.

In the options, all of them are enzymes. Restriction enzymes function by binding to the DNA at specific sites and induce a double-stranded break at the junction.

The spliceosome is a complex of proteins that is essential to remove the introns and join the exons from a primary RNA thereby resulting in the process of splicing.

DNA Polymerase is an enzyme complex with several subunits that bind to DNA and replicates the copy by recruiting complementary deoxyribonucleotides. Therefore, it plays a role in the replication of DNA.

RNA Polymerase is an enzyme complex with several subunits that bind to the DNA and recruits complementary ribonculeotides, thereby resulting in the synthesis of RNA from DNA. This is basically the process of Transcription.

Therefore, the correct answer is RNA Polymerase.
